AN OTHER LIFE

3 1/2 stars actually. A very enjoyable CD, but not a masterpiece. Akacia has somewhat of a 70's sound to them. The musicianship was excellent. The vocals were good, but not as stong as the instrumentation. The songs were good, with Journal approaching excellent. A very good debut. The lyrics have a strong Christian message to them. While I would recomend this CD to anyone, I would particularly recomend it to any Christian prog heads, as there isn't very much Christian progressive rock that I have heard out there.
